Shelby Nelson, Staff Writer

Hi, I’m Shelby Nelson (she/her) from the class of 2028. This is my first year on The Evanstonian, and I plan to focus on writing in the Arts and Entertainment section. I joined The Evanstonian because I really enjoy writing and would like to cover some stories that highlight the talent of both local and well known artists and people in the entertainment industry. At ETHS, I also am on the tennis team for the second year, and I am newly a Student Ambassador. I plan on joining at least one other club this year. Outside of school, I really love spending time with friends, babysitting, and reading.
